<blockquote> and <q> with quote marks inside of tags not removing quotes as expected.

[GoogleCodeExporter]

See the blockquote example in the tests.html file.  It has the text:

"<blockquote> This is blockquote text which has quote marks inside the
source. They should be removed by reset.css and you should not see them."

When displayed in firefox, the open quote marks are not removed as seems to
be indicated by the reset rule shown below.

What effect does this rule in reset.css have?

/* Remove possible quote marks (") from <q>, <blockquote>. */
blockquote:before, blockquote:after, q:before, q:after { content: ""; }
blockquote, q { quotes: "" ""; }

This behaves as expected. The rule removes the quote marks that some browsers 
insert, not the ones the user 
might insert themselves. 

I don't think we should force users to not use their own quote marks, but the 
point of the rule is that they can be 
sure the browser won't place them on its own accord.
